According to Xinhua News Agency and People's Daily
- Reported offer to cut trade surplus with US is non-existent
- Reports to narrow trade gap are "purely a misreading"
- China will never negotiate under conditions set by the US
- China won't make unilateral concessions
- Negotiations are still ongoing and "tomorrow is a crucial day"
Echoes comments by the foreign ministry here. No elaboration is given on the "tomorrow is a crucial day" part though, so we'll still have to wait and see. But it looks like the two are back at loggerheads once again with regards to trade.
